Jockey Fined in Assault Case

Jockey Robby Albarado, who won the 2007 Preakness, was fined $500 for a misdemeanor assault conviction from a scuffle with his former girlfriend in Louisville, Ky., but his legal problems are not over.

At the sentencing, Judge Ann Bailey Smith set a Nov. 14 hearing to decide whether Albarado violated conditions of his release in a previous assault case. He could be sent to jail for up to a year if he is found to have violated those terms.
